I can't imagine what complaint blind persons might have. This is a low cost meter witch so far as I can tell performs well. What would make it better? Maybe a braille manual, I sometimes can't remember which function position does what but there isn't room on the face to apply large braile labels.

I have one and have no complaints with it. The only problem I've run into is some static in the speaker when I push the button on the positive lead. I hate to say for the price it's a great meter. It's a very good meter and typically something blind people would be forced to pay 3 or 4 times as much for. ----- Original Message ----- From: Lenny McHugh To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, March 16, 2010 10:49 AM Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] update - TALKING DIGITAL MULTI METER WITH LIGHTED LEADS-MPJA, Inc. Well, I think it sounds much better than it is. I just called to order one. The guy to whom I spoke told me that the few blind people who purchased the unit were not very happy with it. That was enough to turn me off. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lenny McHugh" <[email protected]> To: "handyman-blind" <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, March 16, 2010 10:39 AM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] TALKING DIGITAL MULTI METER WITH LIGHTED LEADS-MPJA, Inc.
